Says an IPO.B Emergency Nigerian.



But it was the Lagos state govt that built the railway.

Did anybody tie your state governor's hand?

Or they don't they receive federal allocation like others?

Have your governors finished building mansions in Texas, before worrying about building railway networks?

Stupid idiot.

Lagos state govt also built your useless father as well, not only railway.
Were you dead when Buhari was building railways in the southwest and north?

You think calling any real Igbo man IPOB is a curse?
You're such a senseless cockroach!

With the level of marginalisation of the Igbo region in Nigeria and the inborn hatred you horrible creatures have for the people, any real and sensible Igboman would be glad to identify with IPOB

IPOB is the only Igbo group that's boldly fighting against the perennial marginalisation your useless fathers created and are still perpetuating.

So go to hell and shout IPOB!

I pray Fubara succeeds, in order to curb Wike's excesses. I had earlier blamed Atiku for not carrying him along in his campaign process, but now I understand why Atiku completely shunned him and he wants to be in APC and controlling events in PDP when the Governor is there. Wike's choleric propensity is second to none.

Deinde Fanendez,

the man who said “ two ram cannot drink water from the same bucket” made millions abroad became ambassador extra potentially for several Caribbean Nations, died abroad never ever settling Nigeria. One would think since you have made enough money you would want to return home. Anyways he died abroad stupendously wealthy.

Dan Etete

Abacha’s oil minister who after the death of Abacha has made the French chateau his new home. He has be living France ever since. Wondering why he has not return home at least he is rich and those looking for him are no more in government.

Deziani Maduake

Another oil minister who is now permanently resident in the UK has a Dominican passport at present. I understand she is negotiating with this regime to come back but to no avail at the moment. No wonder President’s after Buhari kept the minister of petroleum portfolio to themselves. With d example of Deziani and Dan Etete u would think twice b4 giving that portfolio to just anyone.

Kola Aluko

A protégée of Diziani, was supposed to have fleeced Deziani to the tune of $200.00 million dollars. Said to be large amongst the world’s oligarchs. He was once said to rent his yacht to Jay Z and his wife when they went on holiday. I don’t see him coming home anytime soon.

Guys , Do you know of any other bucks up Nigerian that seems to scared of coming home

Don't expect anything but hardship from brother Tinubu. He has delivered the content of the paper given to him at the Chattam house and signed at the sultan of Sokoto's palace. We are on our own.

Foreign Affairs / Palestinians Mark 76 Years Of 1948 Expulsion From Home Land by Doyin2(m): 2:54am
Palestinians mark 76 years of dispossession as a potentially even larger catastrophe unfolds in Gaza
Palestinians on Wednesday will mark the 76th year of their mass expulsion from what is now Israel, an event that is at the core of their national struggle but in many ways pales in comparison to the calamity now unfolding in Gaza.

https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-hamas-war-nakba-history-b5cea9556e516655c25598d5dbe54192


JERUSALEM (AP) — Palestinians on Wednesday will mark the 76th year of their mass expulsion from what is now Israel, an event that is at the core of their national struggle. But in many ways, that experience pales in comparison to the calamity now unfolding in Gaza.

Palestinians refer to it as the Nakba, Arabic for catastrophe. Some 700,000 Palestinians — a majority of the prewar population — fled or were driven from their homes before and during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war that followed Israel’s establishment.

After the war, Israel refused to allow them to return because it would have resulted in a Palestinian majority within its borders. Instead, they became a seemingly permanent refugee community that now numbers some 6 million, with most living in slum-like urban refugee camps in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

In Gaza, the refugees and their descendants make up around three-quarters of the population.

Israel’s rejection of what Palestinians say is their right of return has been a core grievance in the conflict and was one of the thorniest issues in peace talks that last collapsed 15 years ago. The refugee camps have always been the main bastions of Palestinian militancy.

FILE - Displaced Palestinians arrive in central Gaza after fleeing from the southern Gaza city of Rafah in Deir al Balah, Gaza Strip, on Thursday, May 9, 2024. Palestinians on Wednesday, May 15, 2024, will mark the 76th year of their mass expulsion from what is now Israel. It’s an event that is at the core of their national struggle, but in many ways pales in comparison to the calamity now unfolding in Gaza.


Now, many Palestinians fear a repeat of their painful history on an even more cataclysmic scale.

All across Gaza, Palestinians in recent days have been loading up cars and donkey carts or setting out on foot to already overcrowded tent camps as Israel expands its offensive. The images from several rounds of mass evacuations throughout the seven-month war are strikingly similar to black-and-white photographs from 1948.

Mustafa al-Gazzar, now 81, still recalls his family’s monthslong flight from their village in what is now central Israel to the southern city of Rafah, when he was 5. At one point they were bombed from the air, at another, they dug holes under a tree to sleep in for warmth.


Al-Gazzar, now a great-grandfather, was forced to flee again over the weekend, this time to a tent in Muwasi, a barren coastal area where some 450,000 Palestinians live in a squalid camp. He says the conditions are worse than in 1948, when the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees was able to regularly provide food and other essentials.

“My hope in 1948 was to return, but my hope today is to survive,” he said. “I live in such fear,” he added, breaking into tears. “I cannot provide for my children and grandchildren.”

The war in Gaza, which was triggered by Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack into Israel, has killed over 35,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials, making it by far the deadliest round of fighting in the history of the conflict. The initial Hamas attack killed some 1,200 Israelis.

The war has forced some 1.7 million Palestinians — around three quarters of the territory’s population — to flee their homes, often multiple times. That is well over twice the number that fled before and during the 1948 war.

Israel has sealed its border. Egypt has only allowed a small number of Palestinians to leave, in part because it fears a mass influx of Palestinians could generate another long-term refugee crisis.

The international community is strongly opposed to any mass expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza — an idea embraced by far-right members of the Israeli government, who refer to it as “voluntary emigration.”

Israel has long called for the refugees of 1948 to be absorbed into host countries, saying that calls for their return are unrealistic and would endanger its existence as a Jewish-majority state. It points to the hundreds of thousands of Jews who came to Israel from Arab countries during the turmoil following its establishment, though few of them want to return.

Even if Palestinians are not expelled from Gaza en masse, many fear that they will never be able to return to their homes or that the destruction wreaked on the territory will make it impossible to live there. A recent U.N. estimate said it would take until 2040 to rebuild destroyed homes.

The Jewish militias in the 1948 war with the armies of neighboring Arab nations were mainly armed with lighter weapons like rifles, machine guns and mortars. Hundreds of depopulated Palestinian villages were demolished after the war, while Israelis moved into Palestinian homes in Jerusalem, Jaffa and other cities.

In Gaza, Israel has unleashed one of the deadliest and most destructive military campaigns in recent history, at times dropping 2,000-pound (900-kilogram) bombs on dense, residential areas. Entire neighborhoods have been reduced to wastelands of rubble and plowed-up roads, many littered with unexploded bombs.

The World Bank estimates that $18.5 billion in damage has been inflicted on Gaza, roughly equivalent to the gross domestic product of the entire Palestinian territories in 2022. And that was in January, in the early days of Israel’s devastating ground operations in Khan Younis and before it went into Rafah.

Yara Asi, a Palestinian assistant professor at the University of Central Florida who has done research on the damage to civilian infrastructure in the war, says it’s “extremely difficult” to imagine the kind of international effort that would be necessary to rebuild Gaza.

Even before the war, many Palestinians spoke of an ongoing Nakba, in which Israel gradually forces them out of Gaza, the West Bank and east Jerusalem, territories it captured during the 1967 war that the Palestinians want for a future state. They point to home demolitions, settlement construction and other discriminatory policies that long predate the war, and which major rights groups say amount to apartheid, allegations Israel denies.

Asi and others fear that if another genuine Nakba occurs, it will be in the form of a gradual departure.

“It won’t be called forcible displacement in some cases. It will be called emigration, it will be called something else,” Asi said.

“But in essence, it is people who wish to stay, who have done everything in their power to stay for generations in impossible conditions, finally reaching a point where life is just not liveable “.
